Hello Edward. Yes, that's true. I would agree that it's impossible to do the brain dump, that's why (as I understand it) it is not recommended any longer.
I was reading over the rules regarding the online PMP exam and have seen others mention that scrap paper is not allowed. Is this true? I imagine that would make it difficult to perform the recommended data dump prior to starting the exam. I can't imagine drawing the process chart out with a mouse on an electronic whiteboard.
